UPDATED: Authorities may return him to Belize for questioning in neighbor’s murder

Wanted for questioning in his neighbor's murder, anti-virus pioneer John McAfee reportedly sits in a Guatemalan jail cell this morning facing possible extradition by the Belizean authorities he says he fears so deeply that he has been on the run from them for three-plus weeks.

The fate of the anti-virus guru remained unclear Thursday as Guatemalan authorities awaited word from their Foreign Ministry as to what they would do with McAfee and whether they intended to send him back to Belize, where he is a person of interest in the killing of a fellow ex-pat.

"We are awaiting instructions from the Foreign Ministry. It will be the foreign relations department that decides the process," Interior Minister Mauricio Lopez Bonilla said following McAfee's arrest Wednesday at a hotel in an upscale part of Guatemala City.

Meanwhile, McAfee appears to be blogging about his situation from a jail cell using a computer that was provided to him by those detaining him, according to McAfee, who, it should always be remembered, cannot be trusted to tell us the time of day.

I am in jail in Guatemala. Vastly superior to Belize jails. I asked for a computer and one magically appeared. The coffee is also excellent.

Only time will tell what will happen. No one has a crystal ball. However, I would be truly shocked if I did not conduct the press conference tomorrow as I had originally planned.

Stay tuned.

I believe, by the way, that blogging from a jail cell might be a groundbreaking activity. Let's see if it catches on.

What a card. McAfee had earlier promised that posts to his blog would continue in the event of his capture, and while the most recent entries clearly reflect the most recent events, there is no way to know whether he authored or posted them.
